Recenzii
Nick Havely charts in exemplary detail how Dante's texts first came to the British Isles ... and surveys what was for some centuries a restricted, mainly aristocratic readership.
The whole volume is fascinating, full of original scholarship and full of interest ... Dantes British Public is a very substantial and original contribution to Dante studies, and a really important resource for other scholars in this field ... Meticulously footnoted, with a full bibliography, this will be a truly generative book, encouraging others to develop the many leads offered throughout to further research.
A compelling narrative that ... moves easily between the disciplines of literary criticism, bibliography, reception studies, and art history ... This study will become a standard text for scholars interested in the ebb and flow of Dante's reputation.
A masterly contribution to this field ... Havely's study offers deeply contextualized and original readings of a multitude of encounters with Dante ... It deserves to become an essential point of reference for all scholars of Dante's reception and Anglo-Italian relations.
Havely's ambitious book is an informative work on the wide scope of Dante's reception and popularity ... it is recommended to scholars interested in the reception of Italian literary works abroad, and in the historical progress of Dante's fame.
Readers curious about the expanding English impacts of this poem, as we now mark seven centuries since it appeared, will consult Havely with appreciation for the careful research he has compiled here.
In this new book [Nick Havely] develops a comprehensive line of study which runs from the fourteenth century to the present ... The result is a highly painstaking, judicious and concise study.
The book coincides with a great wave of reception studies exploring the uses and abuses of the past over the course of time, but it is much more than a cultural history of Dante's Anglo-Saxon afterlife. Tracing the physical travels of books - where they originated and arrived - Havely aims to reconstruct the material geography of Dante's anglicization: from Milan to Mumbai, from Berlin to Cape Town.
